- After reading the given descriptions, please place the correct label by the quadrant on the graph that best describes each person's position in the market for loanable funds. Jolien decides not to take out a loan to fund expanding her grocery store because she projects it will only earn a return of 4%4%. Osi closely follows the market for United States Treasury Bonds. He is willing to invest in them anytime the rate of return is 5%5% or higher, and sees that this is the case. In order to open a new car wash facility expected to return 13%13%, Julius secures a loan. John will shift his stock investments to corporate bonds when they return at least 10%10%.

The doubling time is approximately equal to the number 70 divided by the percentage rate of growth. Thus, if Oman's real GDP per person is growing at 7 percent per year, it will take about 10 years (= 70 ÷ 7) to double. Apply the rule of 70 to solve the following problem: Real GDP per person in Oman in 2020 was about $13,000 per person, while it was about $52,000 per person in the United States. If real GDP per person in Oman grows at the rate of 2 percent per year, about how long will it take Oman's real GDP per person to reach the level that the United States enjoyed in 2020? (Hint. How many times would Oman's 2020 real GDP per person have to double to reach the United States' 2020 real GDP per person?) yearsarrow_forward

Investment B promises to pay £25,000 profit at the end of the first year, £100,000 at the end of two years, £600,000 at the end of the third year, and £1,000,000 at the end of four years.

Today you have been offered $98,000 for the car. What is the Rate of Return (ROR) on your investment in the car if you sell today?arrow_forwardYou work for a bank that has just made two loans. In one, you lent $900 today in return for $1200 in one year. In the other, you lent $900 today in return for $10000 in 20 years. The difference between the loan amount and repayment amount is based on an interest rate of 8% per year. Imagine that immediately after you make the loans, news about economic growth is announced that increases inflation expectations, so that the market interest rate for loans like these jumps to 10%. Loans make up a major part of a bank’s assets, so you are naturally concerned about the value of these loans. What is the effect of the interest rate change on the value to the bank of the promised repayment of these loans?arrow_forward
